Answer:

The answer to your question is the third option

Explanation:

To know if two lines are parallel we must get their slopes if the slopes are equal, the lines are parallel.

Data

A (2,2)

B (3,6)

C(0,5)

D(1,9)

Formula

slope =
(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Process

1.- Calculate the slope of line 1

slope 1 =
(6 - 2)/(3 - 2)

slope 1 =
(4)/(1)

slope 1 = 4

2.- Calculate slope 2

slope 2 =
(9 - 5)/(1 - 0)

slope 2 =
(4)/(1)

slope 2 = 4

3.- Compare the slope

slope 1 = 4 and slope 2 = 4, both slope are equals, then the lines are parallel.
